'Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire' (ALL) Gets PS4 And Xbox One Date, Collector's Edition

Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire is an isometric, party-based RPG, that improves upon the rich narrative, beautiful environments, and intricate, tactical combat from the original.

In Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire, players embark on a dangerous voyage of discovery as they hunt down a god to save their own souls.

Inspired by classic titles such as Baldur’s Gate 2: Shadows of AmnIcewind Dale, and Planescape: TormentPillars of Eternity II: Deadfire will take players on a second fantastic journey to the world of Eora, this time to the vast, uncharted, Deadfire Archipelago where they will fight for their souls as they hunt down a god. 

Eothas has returned. The god of light and rebirth was thought dead, but he now inhabits the stone titan that sat buried under your keep, Caed Nua, for millennia. Ripping his way out of the ground, he destroys your stronghold and leaves you at the brink of death. To save your soul, you must track down the wayward god and demand answers - answers which could throw mortals and the gods themselves into chaos.

Players travel the far-flung region of the titular Deadfire Archipelago by ship, where they will discover new races, visit exotic islands, defend their ships against pirates, and, most importantly, choose their allies carefully, as there are powerful factions to encounter at nearly every port. Bend the world to your will, as you explore the depths of infinite possibilities, including detailed character customization, total freedom of exploration, and more meaningful choices at every turn.


Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire will come in the form of a Standard, and the Ultimate Collector's Edition and will be available on January 28th 2020 for PS4 and Xbox One at an SRP of €59.99 | $59.99 | £49.99, and €129.99 | $129.99 | £119.99, respectively.

They say when a god creates a world, there is both detail and perfection aplenty. This is a similar approach when Collectors’ Editions are created at THQ Nordic… Just without the perfection part, ‘cause after all: what is really perfect? Pretty damn good, definitely yes, but perfect?

The Ultimate Collector’s Edition will contain

  • Game Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire [including the 5.0 PC patch], and all DLCs: Beast of Winter, The Forgotten Sanctum, Seeker, Slayer, Survivor
  • 10"/25cm Od Nua Statue
  • Spacepig Keychain
  • Metal-optic 3D Sticker
  • Premium Box
